CRYSTAL BALL Catalog Year of design 2013 The collection of vases-sculpture Crystal Ball as the name suggests, binds the fragility of the glass to the memory of a childhood game, the magic bubbles that were a cult in the ‘90s, hence inspired the name of the collection. The idea of the game, of the lightness, finds the child in these parts where the small bases in solid ash wood, sustain the great spheres of Pyrex, thus being to create a visual imbalance between fullness and emptiness, between fragility and strength.
